| CHICAGO, May 2s.-Cabes from England re-
ported poor demand for wheat, and receipts
|
bearish at the opening. July wheat opened at
! S615c, and at once sold down TO $3.50. June
opened ut 1880 and sold to 6SIkc. Active traders
| on the board were very nearly unanimous In
! their opinion of the market. They believed it
| should so lower and prices went lower. August
| led, but it was followed shortly by July. June
followed till it got down to $50 when the clique
| gave it support, so subsequent declines Ia other
| option had no effect on it. The low mark for
| August was $40 and for July 65SSc. Trading
was fairly large, but was much lighter than yes
| terday. Large receipts here and at other points
and enormous arrivals expected ultimately had
| a very weakening effect, and July sold down to
| S514c and closed at 85Jhc. June closed at sc.
| Corn opened weaker at 399sc July option
! Large receipts and general disposition in short
| to sell caused July to decline to 391tc, but at
| that figure it found several good buyers. At
| nearly noon it weakened to $3.50 3911c, and
| continued weak during the session, closing at
| 39l4c Provisions were weak all day. and de-
| clines were steady and continuous. July lard
opened at IS 65, and closed at So 52s0l6 S. July
ribs opened at 81 20, declined to 81 10, firmed up
